Programs

  1. Crisis: ri's crisis services include recovery response centers (crisis stabilization programs), evaluation & treatment (involuntary & court ordered treatment), and respites. Our programs focus on creating "living room" type of environments in which each person is treated with respect, compassion, and dignity. Our crisis programs ensure safety while providing the best clinical and medical treatment services available to those experiencing a behavioral health crisis. These services are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and serve all regardless of their ability to pay.

  2. Recovery: ri's recovery service includes wellness cities centers providing individual and group peer support, physical fitness gyms, and education and socialization programs. Peer bridger/navigator opportunities are also provided to ensure successful community transition of our participants (diverting from inpatient hospitalization and re admission). The ri model has had a global impact on the mental health field serving as a demonstration that recovery from mental health illness and/or addiction is possible, using principles and practices that create recovery opportunities ri offers. We are placing an emphasis on demonstrating measurably both the recovery and cost savings benefits of these programs.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

How it's funded, over time

Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2020 → 2022: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $166k → $15M.

2 of 8 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 93% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of RECOVERY INNOVATIONS INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 7 of 8 funders by total. Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

How concentrated its funding is

RECOVERY INNOVATIONS INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 90% of grant income and the top three 96%; half comes from just 1 funder.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

96% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund RECOVERY INNOVATIONS INC.

“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

Where its funders are

93% of RECOVERY INNOVATIONS INC's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Of the $1.1M that is directly attributable, 80% of it comes from funders outside Arizona, across 5 states.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $16M arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
